Question

Is anyone here from Minnesota or Iowa? Have you heard about the tornado warnings? What do you think about it?

Answer 1

Scary stuff.

Answer 2

I live in MN, and I have to say there have been a lot of the tornado warnings going around. and supposedly, it's going to rain everyday for the next week. I know Minnesota weather can be a bit extreame, but this is a bit weird of having 2 tornado warnings 2 weekends in a row this early in the season. (last week and the week before) it's not even summer yet.

Answer 3

I am not from those places, but if you are and you've been given warnings, I hope you're reading this from the comfort of your basement?  Warning means SEEK SHELTER NOW.

Hope all is ok.

Answer 4

I think I'm glad I'm not in Minnesota or Iowa.

What happened in Iowa was very tragic.  I hope no one else in either state has to go through that.   I'd volunteer to help if I could.

Answer 5

I live in Missouri, so the tornadoes already passed through here.

Although they did not hit my part of the neighborhood, they are very real.

No lives were taken, but damage is always there with tornadoes.

Since it's colder up north, the tornadoes should either die out or just  not be as powerful.

However, if you're right in the middle of where it's coming, I suggest taking cover in your basement, lowest room, or an enclosed room with no windows, and cover your neck and head.

You know the drill :)

Better safe than sorry.

(If you're on the outer edge, you should be fine, like I was. But still, be cautious)

Answer 6

I was kinda woried but there where no tornados in my county  even though it was in a tornado warning in my county.
